Competitive pay, benefits are just "okay", lots of PTO, remote-work is easy to do.
Cons
Easy to get "stuck" in your position; if you get good at your job, it's easy for upper management to depend TOO much on you instead of holding others to the same standard; there is no punishment for people who do not pull their weight, upper management just ignores them.
